Shenanigans

Two weekends ago, these cuties came to town to celebrate their Gigi's 80th Birthday. Which means I got to hang out with them and play endless games of Pretty, Pretty Princess, Guess Who?, puzzles and cats. They also made cupcakes. And Charley threw up, which is where my weekend went downhill. 12 adults, 3 children, and a dog in a one bathroom house with the stomach bug is MY WORST NIGHTMARE. Thankfully, Charley was the only one who was sick for a little over 12 hours. But still.

Every time I've visited with the girls, I have a picture of us together. Not this time, because I had to drive back to Columbus. (Insert sarcasm) Lucky for me (and my sister) our grandparents live on the drive back to Columbus and they were delighted to have us hang out with them for hours. We laughed so hard we cried at times.

This summer I'm not going on our family vacation and instead going to Washington DC for Independence Day. That is something that has been on my 'to do' list for quite some time now, so I'm excited to see the girls then too. I just hope that isn't our next visit.

This past week was a busy one for work - Monday night BSF was cancelled because of the weather, even though class was cancelled on Tuesday because of the freezing temps I still had a conference and our etiquette dinner that night, Wednesday night was fraternity exec and Thursday night was student council. Finally on Friday we welcomed the new president of our university, I had some friend time and went out for dinner at City BBQ with one friend and watched White House Down with another. (My hometown is in WHD by the way...how cool!?!?)

Love me some Brutus.

I was on a Greek fraternity overload by the time Sunday came. Saturday we had a winter retreat/board meeting type then all day and the Sunday was a training through the University.

Saturday evening I got caught up on all my bible study and organized all my pictures on my laptop (exciting stuff right there) before heading out with some friends. Then Sunday night I ran to the mall and opted to decline a few different invites for the SB and stay home to watch it and give myself a gel mani/pedi. The game was such a blow out I didn't even care that I didn't go anywhere.

It was a good week - except that I was sick the whole entire time. This dang cough just won't go away. And now it's in my sinuses. Yuck. Please excuse my hacking.
